New Rules For Forum Signatures and Posts

If a commercial link is found in a Signature within the forum it will be deleted and the user will be PM'ed with a warning. If it happens again their account will be deleted.

The ONLY exceptions to this are the following

Moderators - Are allowed to have 2 links in their signature, that link must be to your business or your website, you are not allowed to use your link to promote other commercial entities.

Fighters and Gyms - Pro Fighters can have a link in their signature, however it must be directed to their gym website or the fighter’s own website. The link is not to be used to promote other commercial entities.

Photographers - Need to contact advertising@cagewarriors.com providing they are willing to provide images to Cage Warriors when required. Then they will also be allowed a link to their website on their signature

MMA News Websites - If the site in question is a good source and we have an existing working relationship then a link will be allowed, sites in question will have to email advertising@cagewarriors.com

How did it go in Orwell's Animal Farm? "We are all equal but some are more equal than others"

It's really no skin off my nose because I've never had a commercial link in my signature, but it seems a bit odd for certain people to be allowed to do things that no-one else can. Could someone explain the rationale for each of those exceptions please?

Any opinions I express on this forum are entirely personal opinions and it should not be assumed that they reflect the official view of any organisations I am connected with

kindov agree, some people on here really do take it a bit far with over the top name dropping of companies.

Is it Ok to have the name of a company but not a direct link to their website?

Yeah, it will be a bit shit if MMA promotions are allowed to link to their websites but people can't link to the MMA or jiu-jitsu academy they train/teach at. Wait to see what the answer is but I guess the people who run the forum get to set the rules.
